I don’s know Mow will be there or not. If he is there ,please help ask questions from questions from todu which I also feel interested in:
The company “Blockchain Capital” owns company shares in the company Blockstream. Blockchain Capital also owns company shares in the company BTCC. The company BTCC is very friendly to the company Blockstream. Is that because their common owner owns a lot of stocks in both companies?
What percentage of Blockstream does Blockchain Capital own?
What percentage of BTCC does Blockchain Capital own?
Blockchain Capital also owns company shares in the company Bitfury. Bitfury also is very Blockstream friendly. It seems like Blockchain Capital has a lot of influence.
What percentage of Bitfury does Blockchain Capital own?
Who are the owners of the Blockchain Capital company and why do they want Bitcoin to only scale off-chain and not scale on-chain?
You can see that Blockchain Capital owns shares in both Blockstream and BTCC and Bitfury in this picture:https://forum.bitcoin.com/download/file.php?id=601&sid=ece4dfe1fa31b443df50cc9292c9d9f4&mode=view

You’re questioning the integrity of someone or a group of people who have invested into bitcoin…

The links you used are directly from a forum from someone who has heavily invested into every area of bitcoin. Creating their own reddit forum and publicising their own websites (which also acts as an additional source of income), starting a mining pool, starting their own conferences, their own bitcoin client, and exchanges.

Societies – in contrast to the communities – are controlled by the totalitarians in most cases. For example, there is just one country on this planet where the people were able to establish direct democracy.

The libertarians had high hopes that Bitcoin will be such a niche where the libertarians ‘dominate’ the totalitarians. But then the totalitarians hit back and hijacked the project. Next step: Re-liberation.

Bitcoin has been increasing in value steadily for the last ~2 years. BTCC will certainly want more people to use bitcoin so they make more money, therefore their decisions are probably centred around that idea.

Whatever decisions Core are making, are made in consensus with 100s of developers. I trust 100 people to reach decisions that are in the interest of the larger community than a handful who could easily be manipulated and bought. I’m not saying that anyone is acting with devious intentions but odds are not on Core.

What the majority of people say on these forums should be taken more in humour than seriously.
